    Navy Protects Visiting Coast Guard Ships

    GULF OF TADJOURA (May 13, 2021) U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Benjamin Lehrfeld, commander of Task Group 68.6, and Botswain Mate 2nd Class Jonghyun Lee, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, attach night vision gear to their helmets to better see unidentified vessels approaching while keeping watch over the Charles Moulthrope, Coast Guard Patrol Craft (WPC 1141) and Robert Goldman (WPC 1142), Coast Guard Sentinel-class cutters (USCGC) while escorting them into port after an at-sea refueling while in the Gulf of Tadjoura on May 13, 2021. Task Group 68.6, based at Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti provides port and harbor security, high-value asset protection, and maritime security operations in coastal waterways of the Gulf of Tadjoura. The Task Group includes MSRON-11, the security boat squadron and EOD Platoon 8-2-1, which sweeps the port for explosives as needed. Both units are supported by Navy Expeditionary Combat Command in Norfolk, Virginia. Charles Moulthrope and Robert Goldman are traveling to their new forward-deployed homeport in Bahrain to replace decommissioning island-class patrol boats as part of the U.S. Coast Guard’s Patrol Forces Southwest Asia (PATFORSWA).
